With the aid of a diagram, describe how information is transmitted from a source it a destination.

Diagram of Information Transmission

Source:
- Generates the information (e.g., text, audio, video)

Encoder:
- Converts the information into a signal suitable for transmission (e.g., digital, analog)

Channel:
- Carries the signal from the source to the destination (e.g., wired, wireless)

Decoder:
- Converts the signal back into the original information (e.g., demodulates, decodes)

Destination:
- Receives and processes the information

Additional Components:

Noise:
- Unwanted signals that can interfere with transmission

Modulation/Demodulation:
- Techniques used to transmit signals over different channels

Antenna:
- Used for transmitting and receiving wireless signals

Transmission Medium:
- Physical pathway through which signals travel (e.g., cable, optical fiber)

Flow of Information:

1. The source generates information.
2. The encoder converts the information into a signal.
3. The signal is transmitted over a channel.
4. The decoder converts the signal back into the original information.
5. The destination receives and processes the information.
